Footballer Serhou Guirassy has decided which team he will join after being pursued by Arsenal for a transfer.

According to reports coming out of Germany, it seems that Serhou Guirassy, the 28-year-old striker for Stuttgart, has made his decision to join Borussia Dortmund. It was initially believed that he was considering a potential move to Arsenal, but it seems that he has ultimately chosen Dortmund as his next destination.

Guirassy's impressive performance last season, where he scored a total of 28 goals in the Bundesliga, had caught the attention of several Premier League clubs, including Arsenal, Chelsea, and Manchester United. However, Chelsea appears to have dropped out of the running earlier this week, leaving Arsenal and United as the remaining contenders.

Even AC Milan had reportedly added Guirassy to their list of potential summer signings, alongside Chelsea's Romelu Lukaku. It was clear that the player was keen to leave Stuttgart this summer, and with a release clause of just under €20 million, he was an affordable option for many clubs.

Recent reports had suggested that Dortmund was growing concerned about the competition from Arsenal for Guirassy's signature. However, the latest update from Stuttgarter Nachrichten reveals that the player has already made up his mind and has agreed to join Dortmund, who were last season's Champions League finalists.

The report also states that Dortmund has significantly increased Guirassy's salary, more than tripling what he was earning at Stuttgart, which was around £65,000 per week. Additionally, Dortmund has also offered a signing-on fee of over €10 million, which other clubs were not willing to match.

When considering the transfer fee, wages, and signing-on bonus, Dortmund's overall package for Guirassy comes to just over €60 million. This is a significant investment for the club, but it shows their determination to secure the player's services.

Earlier this month, Arsenal suffered another setback in their search for a new striker when Benjamin Sesko decided to stay at RB Leipzig. With Guirassy also out of the picture, it remains to be seen who Arsenal will turn to in their pursuit of a new frontman.
